Pursuing My Ex-Wife Isn’t Easy novel Chapter 158

Lucas squeezed into the elevator as well.

When the elevator doors opened, Lucas realized he forgot to press the button for his intended destination, thus he instinctively lifted his hand toward the 18th-floor button.

Unexpectedly, it was already lit up.

Only one other person could have pressed the button.

Lucas laughed lightly as he took the fruit and cakes out of Luna’s hands. “I ‘ll hold them for you. You’re very thoughtful, Luna. I thought you didn’t know which floor Sir was on, and I didn’t expect you’d know it on your own! “

Luna frowned as she fought with Lucas for control of her own gifts. “These aren’t Joshua.“

She had confirmed at the counter that Natasha stayed on the 18th floor. She did not know where Joshua was staying, and she did not want to know either!

“You’re not here to visit Sir?“ Lucas rolled his eyes a t her, thinking she was just stubborn. “Then who are you visiting so early in the morning? Do you have other friends and family here in Banyan City besides Dr. Zimmer? I thought you’d been staying overseas all this while?“

Luna was at a loss on how to answer Lucas’ series of questions.

With a ding, the elevators opened.

Before Luna could react, Lucas held the presents she prepared for Natasha and strode toward the ward at the end of the corridor.

“Come on! “ He strode down the corridor and turned, waving his hand behind him at Luna.

She had no choice but to follow him.

Lucas had taken her gifts with him, and she had no plausible reason to explain why she did not visit him. Even though she hated Joshua, she could not afford to get on his bad side before she could secure her pregnancy.

She sighed and rushed to keep up with Lucas. “Sir, Luna is here to visit you! “ Lucas opened the

door and set the gifts on the window sill, laughing lightly. “She’s quite interesting. She was shy to

admit she’s here to see you and even went as far as to tell me she’s not.

“If she didn’t come here to see you this early in the morning, who else could it be?

Besides Anne Zimmer, she doesn’t have other friends! “

Anne frowned as she walked in the door and heard Lucas’ words.

Did everyone become so proud and full of themselves after spending a long time with Joshua?

Why would she have no friends in Banyan City? Why was she lying?

Joshua was not the only one staying here in this hospital!

“Continue standing in the doorway. Are you afraid people don’t know you’re here to visit me? “ As he laid at the head of the bed, Joshua furrowed his eyebrows slightly at the pair of long legs standing at the entrance. “Come in.“

Luna pursed her lips as she walked in carefully. “Mr. Lynch, I heard you’re injured.“

She sucked in a deep breath and tried her best to make her gaze look concerned. “Are you alright?“

Joshua glanced at her. “I’m fine.“

“That’s good. “ Luna laughed lightly. “Since you’re injured, maybe you should drink less in the future, especially in situations like last night.“

Joshua frowned before his lips twisted into a cold smile. “What about the situation last night?“

“It’ll make people misunderstand.“

Luna curled her lips up into a smile and aimed it in his direction. “It’ll make people misunderstand that you hurt your stomach because you drank too much.“

Her tone was cool and calm, with hints of seduction mixed in between.

Joshua smiled. “So what if they misunderstood?“

“Nothing, of course.“ She glanced at him, her face almost expressionless. “You arranged the event yesterday, yet you got drunk and had to be admitted to hospital. I find that funny.“
